Hunter Biden's Filings in His Plea Deal Lay Out Just How Much He Received from Ukrainian, Russian, and Chinese Interests... in 2017 Alone
His American Business Income? $666,666

I have a strong suspicion that this detailing of how much money he raked in in the form of foreign bribes is what his lawyer lied to the court to get pulled from his file.

Clarification: This is his foreign income from 2017 alone.

Hunter Biden's proposed plea deal on two misdemeanor tax charges shows the president's son earned millions from foreign sources in 2017.

During calendar year 2017 -- one of the years Hunter Biden is charged with failing to pay taxes in their entirety -- the president's son earned "just under $1 million from a company he formed with the CEO of a Chinese business conglomerate; $666,666 from his domestic business interests; approximately $664,000 from a Chinese infrastructure investment company; $500,000 in director's fees from a Ukrainian energy company; $70,000 relating to a Romanian business; and $48,000 from the multi-national law firm," the memorandum of the plea agreement read, Politico first reported Wednesday.

"He further negotiated and executed contracts for business and legal services that paid millions of dollars of compensation to him and/or his domestic corporations, Owasco, PC and Owasco, LLC," the plea deal stated.

In more news from the A Father's Undying Love Department, the judge in the Hunter Biden case wasn't buying his excuse -- is this even an excuse? -- that he couldn't pay his taxes because he was too busy spending all of his money on hookers and blow. She noted that he supposedly got sober in 2020 -- so what's been his excuse since then?

CNN correspondent Kara Scannell, who was present in the courtroom, said Judge Maryellen Noreika confronted Hunter as the plea deal fell into jeopardy during the hearing. Noreika refused the initial plea deal to his tax misdemeanor charges agreed upon by the Department of Justice and Biden's legal team, leading to a revised plea deal.

"We did hear a little bit about part of these charges that he's pleading to is when he had told the judge he was already sober and she said to him, 'You were sober, so why didn't you pay your taxes?' and he essentially said he had just become sober, his life was an enormous mess, he was trying to pick up the pieces and put it together, and that essentially fell through the cracks," Scannell said.

Someone will have to explain to me how it's some kind of a defense to tax evasion to say "I was so busy violating federal drug law and shipping hookers across state lines in violation of the Mann Act that it just totally slipped my mind. Muh bad, your honor."

126 Using my own 'rule of thumb' it would appear that about 1/10 of the actual income, bribes, money laundering has been identified. Same for the amount of tax cheating/evasion.

178 In more news from the A Father's Undying Love Department...

This is their moral system; I learned this from most action movies. The antagonists kidnap or otherwise hold hostage a Loved Family Member™ (more often its the estranged kids from some absentee "father")

The protagonist then goes on ninety minutes of documented homicide and property damage spree involving lots of innocent people and hundreds of millions of dollars in private property.

We are conditioned to accept this orgy of carnage and destruction as perfectly fine in pursuit of Undying Love for a daughter that he hasn't seen in twenty years.

182 >>Three weeks from now they get back to court, declare that everyone's in agreement and a settlement is accepted is still very much the likely outcome.

So which do you think is more likely, the DOJ will agree to never charging Hunter with any new crimes from other investigations or Hunter's lawyer will agree to waving immunity. Neither side agreed to either yesterday and the judge said she wouldn't accept a plea deal that gave blanket immunity for other potential crimes without knowing what they might be.

If there was an easy fix to this they would have done it already. Instead they tried to get it by the judge with a wink and a nod and she called their bluff.

He shoulda done what the guy who owned the best pizzeria in town when I was in college did.

He liked making and selling pizza. He wasn't very fond of paying taxes, so he just decided not to. I went to buy a pie one day and found the place chained shut with a revenue sticker on the door.

I asked a fried of mine who worked there what happened. He said, "Oh, yeah. He doesn't like paying taxes, so apparently he just doesn't that. He has a buddy in the tax office who tips him off when a raid is about to happen. I got to work and he had the ovens in a U-Haul. He gave me and the other guys our last paychecks in cash, put the register in the truck, and hit the road. He said that this is like the fifth or sixth pizza place he's opened."

Actually this is a slam dunk case. Willfulness is easily shown by (1) the nature of the income which in this case were massive payments for corrupt purposes. That is one of the reasons the corrupt DOJ dropped the FARA charges and refused to appoint a special prosecutor to pursue the corruption. The evidence shows a motive to hide the income. And (2) the dope can’t believably (except by fellow dopes) claim to have the capacity to make millions, while having no capacity to tell his accountants to file taxes.

Yes and don't forget the additional millions he earned via osawago signing deals/contracts etc whatever that means. Probably that income is to Oswago, but really earned by him.

323 If this Hunter case continues to spin out of control and seriously threatens the Biden crime family and associate's I'm thinking Dems will send negotiators to the Republican and seek a deal. Just move on from Hunter and the they will call off the many Dem attack dogs from Trump. Is something like that possible? And should it be accepted?

328 Yes and don't forget the additional millions he earned via osawago signing deals/contracts etc whatever that means. Probably that income is to Oswago, but really earned by him. The tax bill goes to the chapter s corp or some shit like that. So he was clearing 2million plus on foreign income, 2/3 of a million domestic, plus other income from businesses. In one year. Because he's a SOOPER GENIUS.

330 This article unwinds all the legalese from the Hunter Biden plea agreement hearing blowup and walks through how completely the DOJ and HB's attorneys were giving each other reach arounds and trying to ram past the judge the corrupt solution they reached to get Hunter off on all charges, current and forever.

And that depends entirely on Biden's brain not throwing a tie rod between now and the end of his term. I doubt it's occurred to Hunter's three remaining brain cells yet that that's the only thing between him and having a 350 lb ex-biker for a new best friend at Club Fed.

One honest Judge and a wild assortment of crazy people on team Biden. The foolish lie to the court clerk, his bong-huffing lawyer who does that in public view while Hunter is at his house, all of the shady deals concocted around Hunter who has zero knowledge of energy, etc., so he can grift for his father, the laptop, Joe Biden's bragging about the Uke prosecutor getting fired or else no $1B, denial that he is the father of Navy Joan until that pesky DNA got in the way, the cocaine found in WH which was then destroyed, emails, texts, and on, and on. My guess is that the Bidens got away with this for so many decades they were not prepared for any sunlight shining on their crimes.
